Sling just gave its DVR feature a massive upgrade — but there's a catch

The Sling TV app button on the Apple TV home screen.

Sling is our pick for the best cable alternative. You get a ton of features, can pick from multiple channel packages and premium add-ons, and despite a recent price hike, it's still cheaper than its competition. Yes, that includes the recently announced DirecTV MySports sports-only streaming package. But one thing where it falls short is its cloud DVR, which had been capped at 200 hours of storage.

“With Unlimited DVR and our exclusive Auto Record, Sling TV continues to redefine what value and convenience look like for streaming customers. This enhancement ensures that our subscribers can capture and enjoy their favorite shows, movies, and events on their terms, anytime and anywhere.”
